MEDITATION & MODERN BUDDHISM

IN PORT JEFFERSON

Everybody Welcome!

The Port Jefferson Branch of KMC Long Island is a modern Buddhist meditation center in the heart of Port Jefferson Village. We offer drop-in classes on meditation, inner peace, and modern Kadampa Buddhism. Our goal is to help you experience peace of mind through meditation.

Everyone is welcome!

Foundation Program Trial Period is on Now!

What is Foundation Program?

The Foundation Program offers systematic study and meditation on the essential subjects of Kadampa Buddhism, based on six books by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche. Classes include teaching, meditation, and discussion, with an emphasis on applying Buddha’s advice to daily life.

FP is a trusted way to build a consistent meditation practice, deepen understanding, and make steady spiritual progress. For many people, it is the natural next step after GP classes.

We are offering a three week trial beginning and Wednesday January 28th and Monday February 2nd.

Schedule and teachers:

Mondays 5:15 to 7:15 pm with Christine Chase—continuing Universal Compassion

Wednesdays 6:15 to 8:30 pm with Maggie Cooper—starting The New Eight Steps to Happiness
